Sitake goofed on the late punt with 4th and 3. There were about 3 minutes

This was a 50/50 for me.

This is my opinion. Going for it on 4th and NOT getting a 1st down would be

You and I agree with the announcers. They even brought up the fact

My only disagreement with this was our defense up to that point hadn’t given

And you're all wrong. It's any easy calculation.

We stopped them on D, got the ball back with 1 minute, scored the game-tying FG,

That’s all the evidence you need? The fact that this one time it worked out?

No, I was being cheeky. I do not fully agree with his analysis or conclusions,

For me, the odds of losing after punting were significantly greater than odds

Punting there was a HUGE mistake, IMO.

That last sentence should read more like 95 times out of 100. The odds

Statistically picky much?

TailgateU

Just saying he is right and maybe even more than he said.

CDV

90% vs. 95% LOL

That means it's twice as unlikely. That's a big difference.

Technically yes, but it's the wrong baseline to make meaningful inferences.

It’s Trump math

I don't know man, I think it's more like 994 out of 1000

I said the same thing to my wife when it was 3rd down. I just about lost it

Goliath

I was yelling loud, I don't know why the coaches didn't hear me.

Hinta

9/9/19 8:47am

I was yelling too, “Don’t punt!”

According to ESPN, it's 999 out of 1000 games that BYU loses.

Left Shark Coug

9/9/19 8:46am

That was later though. At the time of the punt the odds were slightly better still.

CDV

9/9/19 8:51am

Agree. It was dumb not to go for it.

cougfanz

Bronco's still ticked that fans didn't love his decision to punt in his 1st game

BYU Fan

Because, we only needed a field goal to tie, it was probably

Blue Ghost

Don't thumbs down me, I would have preferred that he went for it...

Blue Ghost

He's a KWhitt disciple. He will trust his special teams and defense every day of the week and twice on saturdays.

Announcers were calling for a punt. They may not know as much

BYU71

9/9/19 9:05am

At some point the O has to score, because the D was very unlikely to do it.

Hinta

We just got extremely lucky. Every college coach in America would go

Ya but you can’t say it wouldn’t have been easier the other way.

If you go for it and get stopped on 4th down, Tennessee gets a field goal, but

The odds of a first down were good

Brigham

9/9/19 9:19am

I thought the discussion was whether to punt or not on 4th.

BYU71

9/9/19 9:48am

I like the odds of getting a first down there using 3rd and 4th downs running

kotacoug

9/9/19 9:23am

You've changed the question to what should we have done on 3rd down. That's
